Chapter 501: Ten Wins and Ten Defeats
"Why am I talking about this?" Guo Jia said, "Don't you don't know who I am and say it to make a name for yourself?"
Xi Zhicai frowned and said, "This is not like your style!"
Cao Cao said: "Yuan Shao and I are close allies now, even if you come to work for me, Fengxiao, you are not an enemy of him, right?"
"Really?" Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao with a smile, and asked Xi Zhicai again, "Zhicai, do you think the same way?"
Xi Zhicai shook his head and said: "An ally is an ally after all, unless one side is willing to surrender to the other side one day in the future, as long as it is not, it is destined to meet each other, the reason why they are allies is because they have common interests to be profitable, and when one day this interest no longer exists, the alliance relationship will also break down!"
Diao Chan said: "Yes, so if Guo Jia you really take refuge in General Cao, it means that the relationship between General Cao and Yuan Shao will have a layer of estrangement, even if there is no war now, the two families will always have a day when they tear their faces, to put it more clearly, that is, there is no opponent in the Central Plains, at that time, a shocking war will definitely break out on both sides of the Yellow River!"
Saying that, Diao Chan looked at Cao Cao and said: "Anyway, it is General Cao himself who makes the final decision, and I also had good intentions before, although it is a little abrupt, but the act of recruiting a great talent in exchange for two families to turn friends into enemies as a condition, this price is too great!"
"En!" Cao Cao pondered, and then said slowly, "Is it really impossible to have both fish and bear's paws?"
Xi Zhicai was taken aback: "What do you mean, lord?"
Cao Cao waved his hand and said: "Surrender to Yuan Shao, he is a face-loving person, he will definitely not refuse, in this way, Feng Xiao and I will not be embarrassed!"
Xiahoudun stopped and said, "Meng De, no, won't all our credit go to Yuan Shao?"
"It's okay to do this!" Xi Zhicai said, "Give up the name to Yuan Shao, and we gain for ourselves, and we have nothing to lose for others and ourselves, sometimes too much attention to the immediate interests will lose the long-term interests, the lord's idea is good, I think it can be implemented!"
Cao Cao nodded: "Why is Feng Xiao so like?"
Guo Jia shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I have a better way, it is more advantageous than surrendering to Yuan Shao!"
"Oh?" Cao Cao said with a slight startle, "Sir, please speak!"
Guo Jia said slowly: "Seven words, coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes!"
"Hold the Son of Heaven hostage to order the princes!" everyone else was shocked. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"This, is it appropriate?" Cao Cao was embarrassed, "I am now surrounded by enemies, Tao Qian in the east, Sun Jian and Yuan Shu in the south, Li Dao Guo Yan in the west, and the biggest enemy is this Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao has the people of Jizhou, and now I heard that Qingzhou and Bingzhou have also begun to be slowly encroached upon by him, their land is vast and strong, and their strength is several times that of me, not to mention the difficulties I face to meet the Son of Heaven, even if I succeed, the other princes are red-eyed and unite to attack me, will I not be overwhelmed?" The so-called guilt, I wonder if I don't have the strength to fight against the princes at the moment!"
Guo Jia said: "That's right, but coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes is a long-term strategy, not something that can be achieved overnight, the top priority is to eradicate the other princes first and gain a foothold in the Central Plains, Zhicai doesn't know what you think of my idea?"
Xi Zhicai said: " It is worthy of being a ghost Guo Jia, knowing the world without leaving home, yes, I have the same idea as you, but now the time is not ripe, Li Dao Guo Yan is in charge of 100,000 soldiers and horses to firmly control the Son of Heaven in his hands, Tao Qian is working hard in Xuzhou, he has a group of civil and military generals can not be underestimated, and his Danyang soldiers are even more powerful, Sun Jian's command is full of talents, firmly control Yuzhou, not easy, although Yuan Shu has just been defeated by us, but the strength is still there, and now the land of Huainan is gradually included in his sphere of influence, these three princes, which one is not the land of Yanzhou that covets the lord at all times, is indeed as the lord said, now welcome the Son of Heaven, there are many difficulties, after ushering, there is not enough military strength and economic strength to fight with the surrounding princes at the same time!"
"I naturally know this, and it seems to me that it is very simple to clean up these troubles!" Guo Jia said quietly, and then continued under the questions of others, " Li Dao Guo Yan is of course powerful, but if it is divided, and self-chaos, that is, the two strong competition, we benefit, Tao Qian is the same, although he is ambitious, but after all, he is old, I heard that he also has the intention of welcoming the Son of Heaven, must not be guarded against, and Yuan Shu, he is now all focused on Yangzhou Liu Xuan, recently stepped up the number of garrisons to Niuzhu and Dangli, one to prevent Liu Biao from grabbing merit, the other to prepare for the occupation of Yangzhou, plus he also has to guard against Tao Qian and Cao Gong in the north, although he is also a civil and military force, speaking of which there is really no force for combat, it can only be blamed that he was too eager for quick successNow Huainan is full of hunger, thousands of miles of barren land has not been cultivated, Yuan Shu has no grain and grass, and he even ordered soldiers to rob tombs, but it can only alleviate the urgency of the moment, and now he may have realized his fatal mistake, so he began to recruit displaced people to reclaim the fields! And many soldiers had to lay down their weapons and pick up farm tools to go down to the fields for their own rations!
"Hehe, he's doing it on his own!" Cao Cao sneered, then looked at Guo Jiadao with admiration, " In this way, as long as I should become the law, these three princes are not afraid, but what should Yuan Shao do, I heard that he has never paid tribute to the imperial court, and he has not put the current son in his eyes at all, before he has been with the former Jizhou Mu Han Fu to set up Liu Yu as the son of heaven, it can be seen that his heart is not subordinate, otherwise the general Zhou Ang soldiers he sent to help me attack Yuan Shu would not have decided to follow me, this kind of person If I don't have a huge disparity in strength, I really want to capture and kill him in a battle, hey!"
Guo Jia said with a smile: "Gaozu is not defeated by Xiang Yu, Cao Gong, you know, so Gaozu is outwitted, although Xiang Yu is strong, he was finally defeated." In my opinion, Yuan Shao has ten defeats, while Cao Gong has ten victories, although Yuan Shao is strong, he is destined to be powerless!"
"Oh?" Cao Cao said curiously, "What are Yuan Shao's ten defeats, and what are my ten victories?"
Guo Jiadao: "Yuan Shao has a lot of etiquette, Cao Gong, you don't have etiquette, this is the first, Dao Sheng;
As Cao Gong said just now, although Yuan Shao was the leader of the alliance in the past, he wanted to make Liu Yu the Son of Heaven, and his behavior was no different from Dong Zhuo's, which was very unpopular, and Cao Gong You have always been loyal to the imperial court, this is the second, righteous victory;
At the end of the Han Dynasty, the government was lenient, Yuan Shao was lenient and lenient, so the law was not good, and Cao Gong was strict in governing and knew the system, which was the third, and the rule was victorious;
Yuan Shao is wide outside and taboo inside, and he is suspicious of employing people, only relatives and children, Cao Gong is easy to simplify and clever inside, and there is no doubt about employing people, only talents are appropriate, and they are far and near, this is the fourth, degree victory;
Yuan Shao made more plans and fewer decisions, and lost in the future, Cao Gongce was able to do it, and the strain was endless, this is the fifth, seeking victory;
Yuan Shao because of the illustrious family background of the fourth and third dukes, talked loudly to gain fame, so most of the people who took refuge in him were people who liked to speak good and obedient, and Cao Gong treated people with heart, and acted sincerely, not for the vain beauty, and the meritorious people did not hesitate to be frugal, so people who were loyal and far-sighted and had real materials were willing to serve Cao Gong, which was the sixth, Desheng;
When Yuan Shao sees people hungry and cold, his face will flow with compassion, but what he can't see, he won't think about it, this is the so-called benevolence of women, and Cao Gong may be negligent in the current small things, as for the big things, they are connected with the four seas, and the grace is added, all of which are beyond his expectations, even if he can't see those who need help, he can also realize thoughtfulness and all-encompassing, which is the seventh, benevolence;
Yuan Shao's ministers fought for power, slandered and confused, and Cao Gong's royal majesty used the Tao, and it was not possible to infiltrate, this is the eighth, Ming Sheng;
Yuan Shao's right and wrong are unknown, Cao Gong is courteous to the right behavior, and the wrong behavior is the law, this is the ninth, Wen Sheng;
Yuan Shaohao is a false situation, he doesn't know what the soldiers want, Cao Gong uses the soldiers like a god, the soldiers are afraid of it, and the enemy is afraid of it, this is the tenth, Wu Sheng!
Cao Gongdao's righteous rule is a ten victory over Yuan Shao, with this Mingjun, even if I die tomorrow, I have no regrets!"
Cao Cao laughed and said: "As Mr. said, how can I be worthy of this praise!"
Xi Zhicai also nodded secretly, and said with a smile: "Fengxiao's saying of ten wins and ten defeats coincides with my thoughts, congratulations to the lord for another talent!"
Cao Cao Zhengse got up, bowed deeply to Guo Jia and said: "I was offended just now, Feng Xiao, in the future, you will be by my side and plan the world for me with Zhicai?"
Guo Jia inadvertently looked at Diao Chan, who was looking at him in surprise not far away, and then bowed deeply to Cao Cao: "My lord, it is my Guo Jia's honor to be able to serve Cao Gong, the Lord is above, please accept my worship!"
Cao Cao immediately helped Guo Jia up: "Hahaha, okay, my seat here for the military division sacrifice wine has been vacant, I have been waiting for a great talent, and today Fengxiao is the new military division sacrifice wine!"
Guo Jia said in a deep voice: "Thank you, I will definitely assist you with all my heart until I die!"
Then Guo Jia said to Diao Chan: "Thank you Diao Chan girl for your kindness, I don't blame you!"
"After a long time, I still couldn't stop you!" Diao Chan nodded slowly, making Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai and the others regret that they couldn't stop Guo Jia.
Cao Cao came to Diao Chan and said with a smile, "Diao Chan girl, I know your kindness, but this is Feng Xiao's own decision, none of us can stop him, maybe for him, it is better to live vigorously than to live this life plainly!"
"I know, it's my woman's kindness!" Diao Chan said pretending to regret, and then looked at Guo Jia's eyes, she felt that she had to look at Guo Jia's eyes to make sure that he was also cheating Cao Cao's trust, because for a moment, she felt that Cao Cao and Guo Jia were really the most tacit pair of monarchs and ministers, and if it wasn't for her previous agreement with Guo Jia, the consequences would definitely be ......
Fortunately, Guo Jia also looked up at Diao Chan, and his eyes conveyed information that only he and Diao Chan understood.
